Ignition switch barrel replacement
Posted: Wed Aug 13, 2014 10:23 am
I'm probably clutching at straws here, but does anyone know if it is possible to replace the ignition switch lock barrel without removing it from the dashboard in a Series 4 car? I can't find anything relating to this in the archive so I'm guessing not. Obviously it would be much easier with the whole assembly on the bench but the thought of pulling the dashboard out is "putting" me off As far as I can see the switch is bang up against the heater box so there's no room to pull it out without pulling the dash forward, which means removing the glove box, speedo cable, disconnecting the choke and heater cables... the list of pain is endless, as of course it always is with an Elan!
